MiIlionaires in the Senate.

1t Is stated that Senator Hearst, OF
California, is spending a very large
amount OF money o secure a return to
the Senate. In some OF the statements
the amount is placed as nigh as $500 900
l. is very douOtfui If he spends Onef(th
! Of that amount; but oue.dfth is very
much more than he ouehJ 10 spend. A
man ought not to be required to spend
cent to get into the United states Senate.
| Merit alone, and not money bags, should
secure him entrance tn re.
For several years the press has periOdi-
cally callrd attention TO the increa SIM
number OF rich men in he Senate. Its not
Unusual now to near the Senate spoken
OF as the rich mems club. There is some
foundation for so designating it. The
millonaires are pushing tEemselve,
into that branch of Congress-.
They are generally pretty we'll along in
lie and seek the position for the honor
it cOnfers upon them, aud not because
they have any ambition to serve the
country. Their wealth cannot purchase
them titles, and cannot advance their
social pos tinn very much. A man who
good things of lite as the one who has
$l,000,000. There is not great deal of
satisfaction in possessing million,
therefore, unless it can be made to con.
stitule some distinction or satisfy some
appetite or ambition,
The man who IS 10 succeed the late
Senator Logan is said to be worth $10,-
100000. Logan was poor. The man
chosen to succeed senator Conger is re-
ported to have $4,000, 900. COng-r has a
little means but is not rich. II trouble Is
taken to inquire about the financial con-
dition OF Senators it will be surprising 10
find how many of them there are VINO are
millionaires, and how many others who
are very rich men.
There is no reason why rich men should
not be senators, but there are good rea-
sons why the Senate should not become
flied with men who have neither taste
nor fitness tor Senatorial duties. A man
who has given mis- whole life to money
making, and who has reached
point in life where be wants
to take his ease. is hardly
qualified for the duties OF a Senator. He
lacks the training and inclination to stud,
the legislative problems thoroughly which
be is expected to assist in solving, and
ne is not disposed to look as carefully
after the interests OF his constituents as
he ought. The millionaire, however, ap.
pears to be in the Senate to stay, and it is
probable that the country will have to
make the best OF him.

The Matthews Case.

The Senate committee which has iuris.
dctiOn of the nomination of the colored
man, Matthews, for the position of Re-
corder of Deeds for the District OF C6lum-
ba has reported it adversely. The
report, 1t is claimed, is based on
the fact that Matthews, at the
time of his appointment, was not
resident of the District. OF course that
is not a good reason for rejection OF the
nomination. but it is the best, probably,
that the committee can find.
1t is rather remarkable that the Repub-
licans of the Senate should show such nos
tili,y to Ma thews. The fact that be was
not resident OF the District when called
to the office he now occupies is not valid
objection, because when the Republicans
mad control OF the government tn ap-
pointed men outside of the District to the
District offices. The real objection to
Matthews is that he is a Democrat, and
the Republicans not only want to punish
bim on that account, but they want to
convince other colored men if thev can
that il they tecume Democrats they net d
not expect any fAvcrs from The Republic
getting into power.
The rejection OF Matthew'S nomination
means great deal more than appears on
the surface. There are in the state of
New York several thousand colored
voters, and that State politically is very
close one. These colored voters have it
IN their power, unless remarkable changes
take place before the next national con-
test, to give the state to either the Demo-
cratic or Republ can party. Matthews is
u New Yorker, and il he should become
firmly fXed in the office TO when be has
been nrminat d, ne might have the power
to nflu nee a very large percentage OF
these coIored voters, who are NV about
all Republicans, to support the Demo-
cratic candidate tor Pres. dent. The Re-
publican senators evidently are aiming
to destroy whatever influence he may
possess.
He has already been once rejected bv
the Senate, and If be is rejected again
the prnhabnli les are that The Presi dent
will again reappoiut nim as soon a. Con-
gress adj lurns. Tue persisteucy OF the
President IN this matter may defeat the
tacucs of the Republicans. He Will a
least SHOW to the colored p olle that be IS
wiling to treat them fairly in the distri-
button OF otic 5, and that is much more
than the Republicans did when tneY had
control OF the governm mt. The colorpd
people are beginning u RECON re the fact
that the Republican party's interest in
them extends no further than Its ability
10 use tn il votes.
